Why is it that in this day and age that deciding to be single and live alone is still considered unthinkable. I’m 42. Hey, I don’t feel 42. I don’t look 42. For the most part, I don’t act 42.

I’ve never been married. Partly that is due to lack of options. But mostly because I refuse to settle. I was raised to understand that there is a difference between needing to have someone in my life and wanting to have someone in my life. Why is it that there are those who still believe that a woman cannot stand on her own 2 feet and be happy unless there is a member of the male of the species in her life.

For God’s sake people, get a life!
